| - The lack of decent sushi bar in the Desert Ridge/Tatum Ranch area was sore on the area. Celsius is the ointment! This place is great. There were very few if any nearby sushi options worth trying, ie Ten. Which if you read Richard Z's review, I was there, it was that bad. But back to the place at hand.
The happy hour here, albeit short and a little early is cheap and filling. It goes from 3-6, but they do have a reverse as well from 10-close. I remember eating there with someone during happy hour for a quick dinner, sans drinks. We walked out of there after getting 2 Spicy Crab, 2 Spicy Tuna, and a Crunchy Special(not on HH), stuffed and for under $20, before tip. The sushi is always consistent, consistently great. The Crunchy Special is my favorite. Tempura shrimp, crab mix, cucumber, covered in eel sauce and tempura flakes. I want some now just writing about it. They have regular Asian type food as well for the non-sushi eaters. Which is decent.
Service there has always been spot on as well. You can watch the sushi chef making rolls behind the counter via a camera and monitor mounted on top of the bar. They have a fine selection of beers and sake. They also have a pineapple infused vodka sitting in a big glass jug on top of the bar. I have been told it is good. Seating inside can be a little tight, but they do have a patio which is perfect in the spring and early summer, especially at night.
Go check this place out. It is near Desert Ridge, but you don't have to deal with the ridiculous parking.
